Even if you're not convinced that "ignorance is bliss", I'd be willing to bet there are at least some things you wish you didn't know or hadn't been told. With all that said, ignorance allows us to simply live life to fullest without having to worry about other nuances and issues that would otherwise take up our time.

But pain's like water. It finds a way to push through any seal. There's no way to stop it. Sometimes you have to let yourself sink inside of it before you can learn how to swim to the surface. - Katie Kacvinsky
